I dunno but it is screwing up all the outlook calendars. I was listening to them bitch that all the appointments at my doctors office are going to be screwed up. Then I went to work and got an email from our IT guys telling us they have a patch but any appointments we had on our calendars for after this weekend are going to be screwed up too. :rolleyes:

Well I am involved in more than Metallica forums where it doesnt matter what time it is when u post, for example one of the biggest online game tournaments, and to stay in contact with people it is always usefull to know what time it is at their places....

U probably have got my wrong. It's not that I am constantly thinking about US times. I said that I normally dont have to think about it.. and with these strange day light savings times I do...
